Marco Gabriel Damasceno Alves (born 11 April 1996), known as Marco Damasceno, is a Brazilian footballer who plays for Sampaio Corrêa, on loan from Atlético Paranaense, as an attacking midfielder.

Club career

Born in Brasília, Federal District, Damasceno joined Atlético Paranaense's youth setup in 2011, after representing a Santos youth school in his hometown. He also had trials at Braga and Real Madrid in 2010, but nothing came of it.
